Deadline for UNC Center for Health Equity Research (CHER) Pilot Awards Program

The UNC Center for Health Equity Research (CHER) and the NC TraCS Institute announce a pilot awards program to facilitate the success of investigators in the field of health disparities and translational research. Read on for more information about the program and how to submit proposals.

The purpose of the pilot program is to facilitate the success of junior investigators in the field of health disparities and translational research, with a focus on them becoming independently funded disparities researchers. The pilot program also seeks to facilitate the success of senior investigators as they transition to the field of disparities research. Proposals that are innovative and focus on CHER’s mission and core program areas will receive priority. Applicants may request up to $50,000 for one year. We will award 4-5 successful proposals with an estimated start date of January 2014.
